Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
The Panthers kept it disciplined and banked a B.

The Panthers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Cobee Bryant at pick No. 113 regardless, 72 picks early.

That James pick is the receipt they will wave around later. That offensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 12th pick they get a mismatch in the passing game. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in slot 44 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick57 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
The board had cheaper options than Donovan Ezeiruaku at pick No. 57, and it noticed. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
They took Jayden Higgins at par in pick 74, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick110 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in the Round 4 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick113 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cobee Bryant in the 113th overall pick, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick141 Rnd5 Ryan Fitzgerald
Circle this one: Ryan Fitzgerald at pick 141 is a fall that decides a draft. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick147 Rnd5 Kobe King
They read the board right and Kobe King was the payoff at pick No. 147. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jordan James
You do not let a running back like Jordan James reach the 164th pick and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick190 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed at the Round 6 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick229 Rnd7 Kai Kroeger
A real head-scratcher, Kai Kroeger in Round 7, Pick 13 is miles ahead of his ranking. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
